Withdrawal and anxiety
Withdrawal and anxiety
I have just been through possibly the worst 4 weeks of my life, due to the anxiety I have experienced due to withdrawal. I have never suffered anxiety before so I didn't know the amount of physical symptoms you can get and how scarey and terrifying the condition can be. I was not told by my doctor and don't recall reading anywhere that this could happen, so I had no idea what was going on, I just thought I was either dying or going insane.
Anyway, I just found this article and thought it might help someone out there, if I had read this 4 weeks ago I might have understood and been better able to deal with it.
I am coming up to 4 weeks sober in a couple of days and my anxiety is now minimal, thank goodness. I think I had every symptom on the list!
Hope this helps someone,
